I only have one thing to say right now and it’s that blogging is a struggle! All in all though, today might have been the BEST day I have ever had. Started off a little sad because Carson and Gemina had to stay at the hotel because Carson was still recovering (she’s fine now though). The equally sad thing was that it was Gemina’s birthday.. what a trooper. The main thing we had planned for the day was a full day of hiking a freaking glacier!!! When we got there though the Kiwi’s in charge had other plans, they only had us down for a half day. We took what we could get and pulled on our vomit smelling but very flattering gear and trecked through the rainforest to the bottom of the glacier. There are only 3 places like this in the world, 2 of which are in New Zealand.
Lauren and I were being total athletes hiking and taking money shots at the same time, Kevin has the videos to prove it. Walking through the paths weaving in and out of the glacier made me yearn for an ice castle of my own. Fastforward and that brings us to after arriving back to the hotel, during the time that Carson was coming up with ideas to entertain us as well as herself considering she had been cooped up inside all day. Thats when genius struck and the idea of the hot springs was brought up and everyone was SOLD. Relaxation in the hots springs was extra satisfying for us glacier hikers. Loose muscles and all became fully clothed for dinner where rugby was on the TV. For those of you who have never witnessed a rugby game: it looks just as painful as I'm sure it really is.
